[quote:Anonymous Coward 28625464:MV8yNDczNTYzXzQyNjE4OTE4X0QxRUJDM0FG] [quote:goodmockingbird:MV8yNDczNTYzXzQyNjE1MTg1XzgyRTE4RDNF] Native Oklahoman here, lived in central OK all my life. All these earthquakes of the past decade are a [i]new[/i] thing. My contention is that the whole SE 1/4 of the US -- ie a triangle headed up at Cape Girardeau MO including all of the lower Mississippi delta alluvial land -- is steadily sliding, subsiding towards and into the Gulf. Our central OK faults are pretty much the dividing line between alluvial coastal plain, and 'firmer' lands to the N and W. Yes, I know OK is far from "coastal" in the common sense, but far SE OK [i]is[/i] alluvial coastal "built up" land. And for what it's worth I am mixed blood Shawnee. The Shawnee Prophet Tenskwatawa accurately predicted the 1811 New Madrid -- this is documented in white men's writings from before the quake as well as tradition. The NM will refresh itself whenver its good and ready. And it is long overdue. I do not want to venture a prediction when. That might be a bad idea. [/quote] Thanks for the post !! [/quote]
